Lockdown Diaries- Nature is healing

I was sitting in my chamber and few customers came to me for help. The times were testing as we were facing the wrath of mother nature. It was serious business in front of me but the mind was not allowing me to work religiously. Somehow i serviced the customers in anger and let myself pacify.

 How has this anger , anxiety and rage crept in me. I was cool as cucumber but it seems lockdown blues have started showing its signs. It is indeed the best time to go back to my writing skills. As we enter into the Lockdown 4.0, it is the time for penning down my thoughts and experiences about the lockdown hereon daily basis. I may be a bit late but as we say a stitch in time saves nine, i begin by my experiences and challenges I met with so far. 

The March end brought with it the first instalment of lockdown and for me initially I was unable to understand the seriousness of the issue. As we passed through the first phase I was exuberant about the fact that the corona virus in India shall not spread too much. This confidence was coming primarily from the media and some half baked truths about the virus. In fact in my workplace certain ladies got actually quite conscious about this and that too very early. I could see the meticulous approach of these women about handling the virus infection and the precautionary measure they were taking. While some were adamant about the percentage of alcohol in sanitizer to be more than 70 %, the others were taking precautions about opening and closing the doors in the safest manner. I had been noticing this and was thinking if it was so scary. 

Being in a family with medicos around, I was getting the daily updates about the virus spread and its impact. The research on the topic was on going and so it was baffling even for them to explain the virus symptoms and the measures to be taken for its control. The social distancing was trending everywhere and we started observing the same in our home. The two medicos started running from us and even i started running from my family members considering that I was also exposing myself to the evil virus. 

While everyone was trying to handle the pandemic in his/her own way, I was things about the only one moral from my class 6th story of Old Tirumala which enunciates the moral fibre that “EVERY THING HAPPENS FOR OUR OWN GOOD”. I was wondering whether there was any one who was benefitting from this crisis. And the answer was lying in the below gif.

 

THE MOTHER NATURE WAS HEALING .
